[Matrix-SIG] Numeric tutorials at next conference?

Les,
In my def, event simulation often means, how an event like interest rate
change, earnings announcement, yen exch rate, Indonesian crisis effects a
particular index or bench mark by how much and how long. Monte Carlo type of
simulation is not unusual. Some combined with genetic type of AI stuff. This
has close association with times seris. It take long time for one of those
effects to be work itself out. This is not my specialty, but I dabbled in
surprise unexpected earnings (SUE) model in the past, so I know little about
it. Obvisouly, SUE is a lot easier to measure than Indonesian crisis. I am
glad that's not my job - I can try the economics office upstairs for that.
I use Python for many projects that requires data structures. I am in
love with the dictionary structure. Although I am pretty much required to
use VB for implementation, I still keep many stuff in Python. Best thing for
realtime data manipulation and no data gets harder than RT data.
How about this for flame?: GODzilla sucks, King Kong rules. Even 1984, I see
cheap rubber fins.
